The Official Blog of the Major League Baseball Urban Youth Academy in Compton, California

Darrell Miller Still an Angel to Some – News Article

Tonight, while doing some research I found a great article from the Press Enterprise newspaper regarding the Urban Youth Academy from a little over a year ago. It was article I’ve seen before, but it’s a nice reminder how lucky we are to be at the Urban Youth Academy. As a pilot program, it has taken off beyond any expectations. The RBI World Series (hosted by the UYA) wraps up for the young men tomorrow at Angel Stadium which serves as a reminder for all those seek solace within the confines of the Academy. That one day a young man who arrives at the doorstep of the Academy has chance to learn from some of the best on the manicured fields might one day play on the pristine fields of Angels Stadium as a big leaguer. Opportunities like these don’t come around everyday, except at the Urban Youth Academy.
